<p>
Each iteration has its own separate declared variable (or variables)
[<a href="#Go_1.22">Go 1.22</a>].
The variable used by the first iteration is declared by the init statement.
The variable used by each subsequent iteration is declared implicitly before
executing the post statement and initialized to the value of the previous
iteration's variable at that moment.

    * If you are running E2E tests which require SSH keys and you utilize environment variables to override their location, you may need to modify the environment variable set. On all providers the environment variable override can now be either an absolute path to the key or a relative path (relative to ~/.ssh). Specifically the changes are:

   - Server-side feature gate: PortForwardWebsocket
   - Client-side (kubectl) feature gate: PORT_FORWARD_WEBSOCKETS environment variable
   - To turn off PortForward over WebSockets for kubectl, the environment variable feature gate must be explicitly set - PORT_FORWARD_WEBSOCKETS=false ([#125528](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125528), [@seans3](https://github.com/seans3)) [SIG API Machinery and CLI]

* `hack/local-up-cluster.sh` now enables the Node authorizer by default. Authorization modes can be overridden with the `AUTHORIZATION_MODE` environment variable, and the `ENABLE_RBAC` environment variable is no longer used. ([#49812](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49812), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* CUSTOM_KUBE_DASHBOARD_BANNER environment variable will be used to populate notification banner in Kubernetes Dashboard add-on. ([#60639](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60639), [@konryd](https://github.com/konryd))

### ConfigMap
* Volumes and environment variables populated from ConfigMap and Secret objects can now tolerate the named source object or specific keys being missing, by adding `optional: true` to the volume or environment variable source specifications. ([#39981](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/39981), [@fraenkel](https://github.com/fraenkel))

- Promoted the `EnvFiles` feature gate to beta and is enabled by default. Additionally, the syntax specification for environment variables has been restricted to a subset of POSIX shell syntax (all variable values must be wrapped in single quotes). ([#134414](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/134414), [@HirazawaUi](https://github.com/HirazawaUi)) [SIG Node and Testing]

- Added authorization check support to the CEL expressions of ValidatingAdmissionPolicy via a `authorizer`

 - Fixed the behavior of the `KUBE_PROXY_NFTABLES_SKIP_KERNEL_VERSION_CHECK` environment variable in the nftables proxier. The kernel version check is now skipped only when this variable is explicitly set to a non-empty value. To skip the check, set the `KUBE_PROXY_NFTABLES_SKIP_KERNEL_VERSION_CHECK` environment variable. ([#130401](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130401), [@ryota-sakamoto](https://github.com/ryota-sakamoto))

### External credential provider for client-go

The client-go credential plugins can now be passed in the current cluster information via the `KUBERNETES_EXEC_INFO` environment variable. Learn more about this on [client-go credential plugins documentation](https://docs.k8s.io/reference/access-authn-authz/authentication/#client-go-credential-plugins/).

### CronJob controller v2 is available through feature gate
